That was a good read. I started off using woods up until bantam (I was born in '88) and the switch to composite really changed my game. I don't even use slap shots anymore because my snap shots are almost as fast and way more accurate. I still keep a couple 5030's around for old times sake but whenever I bring them out it's like I'm trying to play with a telephone pole. Contrary to what that article said I actually feel like my stick handling got better with composites because I'm able to move my hands faster whereas with one of the 5030's I feel like it takes forever to complete a toe drag.
I do hate the price of composites though and they are creeping into the $300 mark as we speak. I have 2 T1's but only bring them out for pick up. For beer league games with all the hacking and slashing I stick to the $100 or even $50 clearance sticks.

Sometimes with bills and trying to save money I take a look at my gear and stop for while. Pretty easy to get caught up in buying.
Awesome read! Thanks for posting.
